Have you shown the videos to any of your friends? When I first got my copies, in the summer of 2000, I watched them with a friend, and he was well impressed. A few months later, he requested to see the whole series again. Last year I showed the first hour or so to my current best friend, but I could tell she wasn't really enjoying it, and she admitted it was too sci-fi for her. She much preferred my Anne of Green Gables videos!

I did once show the Thalian Space Wars as an easy intro to a couple of old Uni friends - it seemed to ring vague bells with them. Of course, I then had to explain the whole randomness of the plot of the compilation to them! Rachel, you seem to need an avatar - have I neglected to do any female ones? If so, do you want Lamia or Keeli?

You didn't neglect to do female ones: Lamia and Makara were both in the list, when I registered in the new forum. I will admit I was a bit lazy, and didn't select one. I will start using the Lamia picture, if you want me to; it would actually be quite appropriate, as I'm a brunette, too. It might be worth you adding Keeli to the list, for any blonde girls who discover the forum!

Man, oh, man... I wish my buddy Britton Goodwin would post on these forums.(I know you're reading this! Post something already! )He actually introduced me to Star Fleet a few years back and I've been a fan ever since. He's currently attending East Carolina University and I know for a fact that he's shown almost everyone he knows some clips of Star Fleet. I'm sure he's got lots of interesting stories to tell of different people's reactions.

Sadly, I fell out with the friend to whom I showed my videos, so I won't be introducing him to the forum. Haven't been in touch with him for ages. He said that Lamia was "a bit of a wuss, but sexy for a puppet!"
